Enters bookstore the young people 's name is Saund Ryan, is the Central District highest police headquarters' respective third-level police division. 走进书店的这个年轻人名叫桑德・莱安,是中央区最高警署所属的三级警司。 Although the police headquarters gradation of Central District and Upper District has not distinguished, but Central District directly under highest police headquarters naturally police compared with surrounding high first-grade, even spoke wants the unyielding several points. 虽然中央区和上城区的警署分级并没有区别,但中央区直辖的最高警署天然就比外围的警察们高一等,连说话都要硬气几分。 What the highest police headquarters represent is the Central District these bigshot wills, but can enter holds an office, itself ability is extremely either strong, either moistens a relative somewhat. 最高警署代表的是中央区那些大人物们的意志,而能进入其中任职的,要么本身能力极强,要么多多少少沾点亲戚。 This causes the police

serve for the Upper District people. 虽然不至于趾高气扬,但至少,他们从来不是为上城区的民众服务的。 They serve, is the Central District hierarchs and aristocrats. 他们服务的,是中央区的掌权者和贵族们。 Also only obeys their orders. 也只听从他们的命令。 Treating Upper District these ordinary civilians and even is the poor, does not certainly have the patience in the attitude. 对待上城区这些普通平民乃至是贫民,在态度上当然也就不怎么有耐心。 Especially itself like Ryan came from the Noble Family courtyard, moreover clan, in addition is not the decline, has the clan industry, is careless regarding Upper District Quest. 尤其是像莱安这样本身就来自贵族家庭,而且家族尚且不算没落,有着自己家族产业的,对于上城区的任务就更加漫不经心。 Let alone, like his family background, actually knows slightly some inside story ーー this time things do not depend upon the police headquarters to trace or be solved. 更何况,像他这种家庭背景的,其实都稍微知道一些内情——这次的事情根本不是依靠警署就能追查或者解决的。 Their Quest represents Central District „strong” and „takes seriously” and „efficiency” the attitude merely, comforts Upper District these people. 他们的任务仅仅是代表一下中央区“强硬”、“重视”、“效率”的态度,安抚一下上城区的这些民众罢了。 In other words, goes through the motions finished up. 换而言之,走个过场就完事了。 Before 12 hours, which club Ryan is still discussing with his colleagues goes to while away the time tonight, which dance party next week should go to search for flowery phrases, in an instant has to run up to this messy and dirty moist Upper District to rush about. 十二小时前,莱安还在和他的同事们谈论今晚去哪个俱乐部消遣,下周又该去哪个舞会猎艳,转眼间就不得不跑到这脏乱潮湿的上城区来奔忙。 Makes this doing a thankless job, even does not have the work of performance, is really bored enough. 做这种吃力不讨好,甚至没有绩效的工作,真是有够无聊的。 Ryan only wants to handle questioning Quest a bit faster, then hurries to go home to take a hot bath, urges to go faster the body contamination the soil and dust...... he felt quickly oneself must not gasp for breath. 莱安只想快点把盘查的任务搞定,然后赶紧回家洗个热水澡,去去身上沾染的泥土和尘埃……他都快感觉自己要喘不过气来了。 Was wrapped by moist the muddy air, looks like Northern Highlands that popularly named...... right, is called food of steamed rice dumpling to be the same! 被潮湿又浑浊的空气包裹得,就像是北方高地流行的那种叫做……对,叫做粽子的食物一样！ Damn Quest, when he rises to the first-level police division, did not use on this street runs like only the energy surplus sheepdog back and forth. 哦,该死的任务,等他升到一级警司,就不用在这街道上像只精力过剩的牧羊犬一样来回跑了。 „On the other hand, this is that street that had the gas explosion?” “话说回来,这就是那条发生了煤气爆炸的街道吧？” Arrives at this street time, Ryan nearby „pitiful condition” attracting, on the side of this street merely is seemingly messy and dirty ruined, another side is completely horrible to look at stretch of ruins. 走到这条街道的时候,莱安就被旁边的“惨状”给吸引了,这条街道一边仅仅是看上去脏乱破败,另一边就完全是惨不忍睹的一片废墟。 The drawn in yellow warning line vibrates in the wind, the two police officers of his subordinate replied: „Yes, the Norzin daily paper reported this matter half a month ago.” 拉上的黄色警戒线在风中抖动,他下属的两个警员回答道:“是的,诺金日报在半个月前报道了这件事情。” „Half a month ago?” Ryan lifts the chin, felt the superiority feeling naturally: „Arrived present this appearance, Upper District working efficiency also this.” “半个月前？”莱安抬起下巴,自然而然地充满了优越感:“到现在还是这幅样子,上城区的做事效率也就这样了。” Two police officers from Upper District looked at each other in blank dismay, knows the limitation has not said this stretch of ruins to attract report of a number of media in half a month, to meet Central District recent one month of deficient entertainment story request, causing the reconstruction project to delay repeatedly. 两个来自上城区的警员面面相觑,识相地并没有说出这片废墟在这半个月里面吸引了一批媒体的报道,为了满足中央区最近一个月匮乏的娱乐新闻要求,导致重建工程一再延迟。 Until the recent reconstruction project was developed by Lorre contracting, this finally begins construction. 直到最近重建工程被罗尔开发给承包了,这才终于开始重新动工。 In other words, causes this region reconstruction low efficiency, actually instead Central District these people. 也就是说,导致这片区域重建效率低下的,其实反而正是中央区的这些人。 Naturally, they naturally did not say to this matter keep quiet, so as to avoid offended the own immediate superior, the later day did not feel better, even could not preserve oneself this clothes. 当然,他们自然对这件事情缄口不言,免得得罪了自己的顶头上司,以后的日子不好过,甚至保不住自己这身衣服。 „Walks, said that this street needs to question side was only left over this row of shop.” Ryan satisfied said/tunnel: „As the matter stands, this manual labor was more relaxed.” “走吧,这么说,这条街需要盘查的就只剩下旁边这一排店铺了。”莱安满意地道:“这样一来,这活计就轻松多了。” In fact, this naturally is very exactly relaxed. 实际上,这活当然无比轻松。 They were sent Upper District by below, accepted is the vision that the respect dreads, questioned people were for fear that investigated to go wrong, is serving cautiously. 他们被下派来上城区,接受的都是尊敬且畏惧的目光,被盘查的民众生怕自己被调查出什么毛病,全都小心翼翼地伺候着。 Asked that makes a clean breast of oneself family's situation immediately, Ryan was thought highly of the ear to have callus quickly. 问一句就立马把自己全家老小的情况和盘托出,莱安都快被恭维得耳朵出趼子了。 Funniest one is Boss of video store. 最好笑的一个是一家音像店的老板。 His actually whole face said tight oneself thought that recent next door that bookstore owner was possibly replaced by some type of evil thing. 他竟然满脸紧张地说自己觉得最近隔壁那个书店老板可能是被某种邪恶的东西取代了。 „Boss of that shop is a evil spirit!” “那家店的老板是个恶灵！” „He can pass through the wall, only achieves some terrifying things by the thought.” That middle-aged person named Colin lowers the sound to say like this, the facial expression, said with the sound that shivers slightly probably: „Couple days ago early morning, I heard him to saw up with the power saw...... possibly am the bone of person, the flesh, was fearful, he is even grinning fiendishly, I felt that he might kill me anytime......” “他能够穿过墙壁,仅凭借意念做到一些恐怖的事情。”那个叫做科林的中年人压低声音这样说道,神情就好像真的一样,用微微颤抖的声音说道:“前几天的凌晨,我听见他在用电锯锯断……可能是人的骨头,还有血肉,非常可怕,他甚至在狞笑,我感觉他随时有可能杀了我……” A police officer asked jokingly: „You should look for Church to solve your problem.” 一个警员开玩笑地问道:“那你应该找一个教会来解决你的问题。” „I have looked!” “我已经找了！” Colin stares the big eye, toward these three does not believe that his idiot shouts: „Priest on the road, he has been able to help!” 科林瞪大眼睛,朝这三个不相信他的蠢货喊道:“神父已经在路上了,他会来帮忙的！” „Okay good, you wait for Priest to come, our inquiries this finished.” “好好好,那你就等着神父来吧,我们的提问到此结束。” Obviously, the police officers treat as a joke this. 显然,警官们把这当做一个笑话。 Ryan somewhat was vigilant, when asked actually Colin had what evidence, this fellow actually knows nothing, all depending on the conjecture, shouts cannot see absolutely, will otherwise encounter the misfortune and so on nonsense. 莱安原本还有些警觉,然而当问到科林究竟有什么证据的时候,这家伙却一无所知,全凭臆想,嚷嚷着绝对不能看见,否则会遭遇不幸之类的胡话。 Doubtable this video store Boss whether head has the sickness. 让人怀疑这音像店老板是否脑袋有恙。 „This is the quality of Upper District person.” Ryan leads the subordinate to come out, like this shakes the head to say. “这就是上城区人的素质。”莱安带着下属出来的时候,这样摇头说道。 Immediately looked to nearby bookstore. 随即看向了旁边的书店。 Does not know whether because of the Colin nonsense, in this moment, Ryan felt the attraction that one type is unable to speak sends out from that worn-out shop. 不知道是否是因为科林的胡言乱语,在这一刻,莱安感觉到了一种无法言说的吸引力从那破旧的店铺上散发出来。 No matter the bell in gate, display window that side seemed covered by the dust forever. 不管是门上的铃铛,还是旁边仿佛永远被灰尘遮盖的橱窗。 Ryan is speaking the words of

“我记得,这家店铺登记的信息只有店长一个人。”莱安手头有着这些店铺的基本信息,目光探究地道。 Bookstore Owner nods, naturally said/tunnel: „She is the sales clerk who I just recruited recently, oh, the business was quite recently busy, I am really unbearably busy.” 书店主人点了点头,理所当然地道:“她是我最近刚刚招收的店员,唉,最近生意比较忙,我自己一个人实在忙不过来。” „Right? Can provide her ID card or the household register proof? We must make to register.” “是吗？请问能够提供一下她的身份证或者户籍证明吗？我们要做一下登记。” „This is a little troublesome.” Bookstore Owner looks the embarrassment, „she is my friend a daughter of relative's house, just moved from Central District, I think that you should know, the decline aristocrat transfers civilians the procedure to be very complex voluntarily, now still in processing, all documents is taken away the connection.” “这有点麻烦。”书店主人面露难色,“她是我一个朋友的亲戚家的女儿,刚从中央区搬迁过来,我想你们应该知道,没落贵族自愿转为平民籍的手续很复杂,现在还在处理当中,所有的证件都被拿去交接了。” „...... Such matter I have heard actually, but her body's wound what's the matter?” “哦……这样的事情我倒是听说过,但她身上的伤又是怎么回事？” „This must decline speaking of their family/home to the present this situation reason......” “这就要说到他们家没落到现在这种地步的原因了……” Bookstore Owner clears throat, a preparation spoke an appearance of very long very long story. 书店主人清了清嗓子,一副准备讲一个很长很长的故事的样子。 Two police officers stand before the counter are guarding, the attention was actually captured by that bright Rose flower. 两个警员站在柜台前防备着,目光却被那鲜艳的玫瑰花所吸引。 Ryan walks to inspect this bookstore, everywhere examining, the mouth is saying: „Said, your next-door neighbor, to your some prejudices, seemed to think you are what evil spirit.” 莱安走进去巡视着这家书店,四处查看着,嘴里说着:“说起来,你隔壁邻居,似乎对你有些偏见,觉得你是什么恶灵。” Bookstore Owner seem accidental/surprised: „Evil spirits?
